Hi, I'm Rachel! I graduated from the University of South Florida, Sarasota-Manatee in 2017 with a Bachelor's Degree in Professional and Technical Communication.

Hi, I'm Rachel! I graduated from the University of South Florida, Sarasota-Manatee in 2017 with a Bachelor's Degree in Professional and Technical Communication. I chose a degree in this field because I've always been a good communicator -- especially in writing form. However, during my time at USFSM, I learned that I also have a passion for teaching, leading and learning.
I have a TESOL certification and have experience in teaching English to students from China online. I'm also a certified substitute teacher. The biggest accomplishment I strive for in my lessons is to know that every student is comfortable. I strive for my students to feel comfortable and welcome so that they know they are in a judgement-free zone -- this allows them to be themselves and open up more, which ultimately encourages my students to learn without fear of failure.
As a teacher, I am a lifelong learner. Therefor, I am continuously learning new ways to improve as both a teacher and a human being. I love to hear feedback from both parents and my students on ways I can improve my teaching environment. I'm always available if you'd like to learn more about me. I'd love to learn more about you too!
